Oregon Part 2

So I have way too many photo's to share from this trip, I shared some in the last blog post but I have to share a few more. There were pics I never shared from Oregon. It was really beautiful there and these kiddo's were just the sweetest things ever. I adored them.

there is a garden...

Blessings

My life is full of blessings. I have moments when I get stressed and I worry (by the way did you know worry is a sin? If you ever struggle with worry you really should listen to this, click on the "life's too short" message. I promise it will make you change your thoughts about worrying.)
Anyway, as I was saying I have times where I feel like things aren't going as planned, or how I want them to and I get frustrated and throw a little pity party for myself but then I step back and look at how BLESSED I am. God has blessed me beyond anything I ever imagined and definitely beyond anything I ever deserved. One of my many blessings is my family. I have a wonderful, supportive, loving, fun, Godly family. I spent several days in Texarkana this past week helping get ready for my sister in loves baby shower (that sounds so much better than sister in law doesn't it? and besides, I just love this girl). Another huge blessing is that sweet Ariana will be here before you know it! I'm just so excited to meet her and kiss her and cuddle her and drive her crazy with my camera. I love her already.



Me, my beautiful mom and my beautiful sister in love.

The cake was from The Bakerman in Texarkana, they do amazing work.

Tuesday Tunes

I've slacked off but here is Tuesday Tunes. I just got back from Texarkana and had a wonderful time. My beautiful sister in law had her baby shower on Saturday and I'll share lots of pics from it tomorrow.
